I had to reset my 4100 HP printer and have HP printer cartridges installed now but I can't set up because it is asking for setup cartridges which I don't have anymore.  Please help me get my printer working.

Hi @Dreddish,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

I am sorry to hear that you have not received the setup cartridge we can buy pass this May I know if you have regular cartridges if Yes I am sending private message

 

To Bypass Using Setup Cartridges for HP DESKJET 4100  PRINTER the only option left is to perform an OOBE reset and re-initialize the printer. 

 

The reset instructions are specific to your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device.

 

I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instructions to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer. 

 

In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Support Community profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link.

 

Let me know if this helps.

 

Please click “Accepted Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution. Click the “Kudos/Thumbs Up" on the bottom right to say “Thanks” for helping!

 

I am an HP Employee.
